One of 2025’s most highly-anticipated games is reportedly getting its wig pushed back.
Word on the street that Grand Theft Auto 6 will no longer arrive in 2026. GTABase reporter Liam, who accurately dropped the release date for the game’s first trailer, now claims the game will be delayed.
According to Liam, multiple developers from two studios say Grand Theft Auto 6 will be released in early to mid-2026.
Liam also says the PC Gamers can expect to get their hands on GTA 6 12-18 months after the game’s console release.
Of course, take all of this with a grain of salt.
Insider Gaming’s Tom Henderson is throwing a splash of cold water on Liam’s claims, writing in a post on X, formerly Twitter:
I have no idea, but after looking at what went down, it seems pretty straightforward that there isn’t a delay *at the moment*. No one will comment because it can change in a heartbeat, and no one wants an egg on their face and give credit to someone who could have lied, been misled, or passed off an educated guess as a leak, as it could have bigger implications down the road.
Henderson also added that he has “no idea” what is going on with the game’s development in a follow-up reply to his initial post on X.
Liam also deleted his post on X announcing the delay, which could also be a sign that he was wrong with his reporting or that he got a message from Rockstar Games to cease his comments; who knows?

There have been so many different reports about this game, such as it being linked to the release of the upcoming PS5 Pro console.
Recently, Martyn Ware of the group Heaven 17 told Rockstar Games to “go f**k yourself” after getting an “extremely low offer,” reportedly $7,500, to use the song “Temptation” in the game.
Welp, all we can do is just wait for Rockstar Games to make any announcements regarding GTA 6.
